AT THE END OF
HIS JOURNEY
The Indianapolis Star eaya of the
arrival of Eza Meeker at thai, place
after having marked the Oregon trail:
"Pioneer" Meeker baa ariived at
bis destination at Indianapolis with
bis ox team, having retraced the old
Oregon trail the entire distance of
2600 miles.
The Star devotes an entire page to
cuts and an interview with the cour
ageous pioneer, which is entitled,
"Oregon Trait lilazed Anew After
Fifty Years." The illustrations con
sist of (ii fiord 's "Dedicating Monu
ment at The Dalles, Oregon." Moor-1
house's pioture ot the pioneer himself'
In buckskin suit, gnrbed as a typical
mountain man, seen in the last Pa
cific Monthly. Also the Meeker home
on Puyailup as Camp No. 1, and
"Chimney Rock" on old Oregou trail,
in North Platte valley, with Meeker
and ox team in foreground.
Io a reporter "Pioneer' Meeker eald
be lett his home at Puyailup, Camp
No. 1. January 29, 1900, and had trav
eled 2000 miles to return to his fprm
tiome seven miles west of Indianapo
lis, which be left iu the fall of 1851
for an early start the next spring to
Oregon.
As a result of his land marking
journey, no less than 20 markers have
been set along the trail already, and
other cities are planning to ootuniero
orate the historic spots. Among the
cities along tha historic, roadway are
Grand Island, Neb. ; North Platte,
Neb. ; Casper, Wyo. ; Pooatello, Ida
bo; Boise, Idaho; linker City, Ore.,
and The Dalles.
In many places magnificent monu
ments have beeu created, one of hand
some design being placed in the court
bouse yard at Laker City. In one
city a granite shaft weighing over five
tons and more than 12 feet high was
placed.
"I am satinfled," said the old pio
neer. "The work ingoing on and it
won't be long before the old way will
b marked with shafts suitably in
scribed. It was a long jounery for an
old man to make, but 1 feel repaid.
Sometimes while iu the Rocky moun
tains we never saw a railroad for
days, then again, we came out into
fertile territory, dotted with comfort
able bomes, which in the etrly 50a
was the nun' lug ground of the In
dian. '
"Pioneer ' Meeker will remain in
Indianapolis this winter in the inter
est of bis two books; one, "Ihe Trag
edy of Leschi," or a history of the
Indian w r and Governor I. 1. Stev
en's administration. The "ther book
i entitled, "The Ox Team, or the Old
Oregon Trail."
In reply to tbe question as to what
literary (raining be bad bad, Mr.
Meeker said in bis early years be was
araployed on the old Indianapolis
Journal. .
"A writer on the Journal, were
you?" asked tbe interviewer.
"No," was the old pioneer's reply,
"I was the devil."

were 500 boxes in tbe first cargo, the
boxes containing 15, IS and 21 peach

each being wrapped in a separali
wrapper containing tbe name ot tbe
packers. Tbe fruit in each box was
of uniform ize and it arrived in ex

Railroad Again Blockaded.
The seoond bad storm of tbe winter
oocnred Saturday and Sunday, and
the deep snow that fell, driven by tbe
east wind, was sufficient to tie up
railroad traffic Sunday and part of
Monday. Trains 3 and 5 got as far as
Ibe Dalles Sunday, and laid there un
til late Monday. The first train into
Lloou ICiver since Saturday night was
Supt. Campbell's speoial car, which
came through from The Dalles at nine
dock Monday morning, with two
engines, and proceeded west. A trans
fer was arranged on tbe boat at boo
neville, which contiuued until the
track was clear. A freight train was
caught iu a deep out below ticnnv
llle, by a snow slide, and it bad to
be dug out. Tbii was naturally slow
woik, as the euow plow could not be
operated.
Cold Weather (food for Crops.
Vancouver, B. C, Feb. 5 Ibe
farmers of sunny Alberta claim they
do not mind tbeir forty-below-zero
weather. They claim it is good for
the crops. Frederick Engen, who is
here fiom Saskatoon, claims that tne
temperature there is not felt so severe
as ten below in Pritish Columbia. Tbe
prairie farmers see nothing but obeer
n tbe cold weatner, lor tn deeper
tbe frost goes the better next year's
crop will be. WiHam Ingram says:
The frost rising over tbis longer per
iod will keep tbe ground moist most
of tbe summer and with one or two
raius iu May a tine yield will be as
suied The fall wheat, which will be
high euougb to shade tbe ground aud
therefore hold the moisture a little
louger, will benefit the most, but the
spring wheat will also reap muob ben-etlt.

and best remedy for coughs and colds I
have ever used.'" Sold by Chas. N.

Salem, Or., Feb. 5. That the en
:ctment of tbe Perkins bill, providing
a new water code, would cost tbe peo
ple of Oregon from 150,000 to 200,000
a year, and would open tbe way for
many grafts is declared in a protest
tiled in tbe senate today and signed
by count v Judge Dunn, of Jackson
county ; Circuit Judge 11. K. llanna,
Gus Newberry, 8. C. Minniok, W. R.
Coleman, J. C. Pendleton aud others.
The protest is addressed to the Jack
son county delegation, and asks I hem
to vote against tbe bill. Tbe petition
says amou; other things:
It tbis measure should pass every
owner of a water right in the sttate
woud be uiadn a party defendant, wbo
must deieud the right of tbe use of
tbe water hioh he has employed In
watering bis btock and irrigating bis
premises, even though be may have
used the light for a period of 40
vears, aud nl.nl her he establishes bis
rigbt or uot he oi Id be required to
pay tbe expeuses of tbe litigation nee
essary uuder tbis measure.
It seems to us that the measure is
calculated to open tbe way tor some
corporation to aoquire tbe lights of
tbe small water user tu tbe state by
fieezing biui out through the avenue
of tbe expeuse which this measure
must necessarily eutatil upon tbe
water users of the state.
Should tbis bill pass, in our judg
ment, (he small raucher in tbe moun
tains of tbe state wbo depends for bis
livelihood on irrigation of his prem
ises could not meet tbe expense neces
sary to defend bis rigbt to the use of
water on bis land, aud the passage of
tbe measure would meau confiscation
of bis property interests.
In short, lurking iu tbe bill there
seems to be a scheme to get for some
corporation, or corporations, tbe wat
er rights that now beloug to private
individuals. We respectfully urge
you to vote against tbe measure.
The Perkins bill is tbe water code
drafted by a committee of the Port
land Board ot Trade.
